you talk about the image issue that's surrounded the romney campaign and outside romney campaign adviser told you in the book, quote, they haven't been able to grapple with the central issue and central challenge they face as a campaign, that is that in the absence of a candidate who has any poetry, any ability to connect on an emotional level, how do you create a bond? if you're a supercharismatic candidate like george w. bush or john mccain they ran without a real bold agenda. they had more emotional level, values level ways to connect with voters. this guy hasn't had it. evan, is it essential that at some point he connect or can voters simply say, look, i can't have a beer with him but i think he can turn the economy around? >> well, as you were saying at the top the show, if the economy tanks and unemployment goes away, he can win by default. i mean, sure. he's got to do better than he's done. he's been a bad politician. he has to find some way to be, i don't like this word, but relatable. some way to relate to voters. they haven't figured it out. you'll see more romney telling his l

now romney criticals of unions. reagan. now romney criticals of unions. i think romney probably has to win wisconsin because it looks like his path to victory is through the midwest because the southwest doesn't look as good. i just think this union battle is going to probably help democrats because it will get them to show up on november 6th. >> edward e, there's movement i the chicago teachers strike. both sides now back at the bargaining table to work out the details of a new contract. we hear this thing is practically a done deal. mitt romney accused the president of siding with the union instead of schoolchildren. if it gets resolved soon, does that it is solve a thorny situation for the president? >> of course this is a thorny situation for the president given that his former chief of staff is the mayor, the one in the battle with the teachers union. and it's in his hometown. but the president's very carefully avoided any real involvement with this whole situation. it's all optics and image of how the president is with the unions overall. but i do t

the reality on both sides, chris, but essentipecially for romney, mitt romney is not winning this election -- i would be stunned if he did -- with 53, 54, 55% of the popular vote. if he does, he will win by 51.7, 51.3. it's hard to imagine either popular vote wise or even in the electoral vote. >> i think romney's key here is the larger argument. in order to get to 50, he has to win the larger argument that somehow he's going to make the economy better, so if he does that, i think suddenly getting to 52 and 53 becomes easier, that there's not a big margin there. i think the hard part for him is winning the initial argument and getting there. >> i'm with our numbers guy we all listen to at msnbc on election night. it's too early to call. i have no idea -- i have learned it's too early, not too close, because it could well break this campaign. we don't know. it could break in the fall, i think. thank you, chuck todd. up next, the republicans seem to have decided that the partisan personal attacks, the real nasty stuff against the president doesn't work, so they have a new line of attack bein

mitt romney. he gets to decide who he thinks will be the best vice president and the person best prepared to serve with him to turn our country around. >> is it going to be you? >> i doubt it. >> do you have a good sense to any of us about what may be going on. it has been pretty clear on republican leadership that they needed to try a different tactic? >> they certainly want to do it differently. that's obvious. the result will show they have done it differently. that's because mitt romney and john mccain couldn't be more different in how they approach decisions. mccain made and makes decisions by the seat of his pants as with the sarah palin pick. mitt romney is a careful planner and how he has done business all of his life. that is what the vetting process is doing. i bet you that vetting process is microscopic whoever gets picked will have earned it. it will be a very difficult process. top questions will be asked about every aspect of life. it won't be a lot of fun. >> i have been doing this
